KILLER REALITY
2013 / US / ** 1/2 (JA Kerswell)
"In-name-only sequel to KILLER MOVIE. Someone is bumping off contestants on a BACHELOR-style show."
KILLER MOVIE
2008 / US / *** 1/2 (JA Kerswell)
"If you ever wanted to see a slasher movie in the spirit of BEST IN SHOW, then this could be the film for you.."
CHOPPING MALL (expanded)
1986 / US / **** (JA Kerswell)
"
... replaces a machete-wielding killer with laser-blasting dustbins on rollerskates—and it is G-L-O-R-I-U-S! "
THE SWEET BODY OF DEBORAH
1968 / It/Fr / *** 1/2 (JA Kerswell)
" ... just as influential for the popularity of the giallo as THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE."
THE SHAMAN
2008 / Indonesia / ** (JA Kerswell)
"A lesser Indonesian slasher that has lofty aims but is let down by its amateurish, unfocussed production."
SPITHOOD
2024 / Australia / *** (JA Kerswell)
" ... benefits from a genuinely threatening killer, a fantastic location, and its share of twists and turns."
THIRTEEN WOMEN
1932 / US / *** 1/2 (JA Kerswell)
" ... features a spurned woman who takes revenge ... and has elements that would become commonplace in early 80s slashers."
DISLIKE
2016 / Russia (JA Kerswell)
"A super cynical Russian horror that works as a pastiche of slasher movies as well as a satire on vlogger culture."
THE CAVERN
2005 / US / ** (JA Kerswell)
" ... playing for most of its runtime as a subterranean monster movie, this turns out to be an unlikely slasher."
